Big Brother Naija reality star Khloe Abiri has probed the Nigerian government over the state of things in the country. She questioned whether the government realises that business owners are spending almost all their profits, and sometimes their entire income, on petrol to keep their businesses running.
Calling on them to do something about it, she said it is becoming unbearable to own and operate a business in the country.
Khloe noted how workers deserve better salaries, better pay, improved welfare, and good working conditions. Still, they can’t get that because their employers spend a lot to keep the business running.
“Does the Nigerian government realise that business owners are spending almost all their profits, and sometimes their entire income, on petrol just to keep their businesses running “
Dear Ma/sirs in the high places, can you please do something about this?
It is becoming unbearable to own and operate a business in this country.
Our workers deserve better salaries. We want to pay them more, improve their welfare and create better working conditions. But how do we do that when we are exhausting almost everything just trying to keep the business running?
Between petrol, electricity, rent, supplies and other operational costs, what exactly is left for business owners to grow, reinvest, or even survive?
We are not asking for luxury.
We are asking for an environment where running a legitimate business doesn’t feel like a daily battle for survival.
Please, something needs to change; Nigerian business owners are struggling”.
A week ago, ex-footballer Emmanuel Emenike cried out to the government following an attack on his hospital. He noted that he served Nigeria on the international stage and returned home to bring his experience and success to his home state.
This incident came days after he accused some Nigerian state governors of lacking development plans and mismanaging public funds. He called Nigeria an embezzlement ground. And criticised security personnel for supporting politicians and causing economic hardship.
Sharing her thoughts on the 2026 budget, Ghost Agency, Yvonne Jegede questioned when the Agency was created and how it has a budget within the Federal Government.
In a previous post, Yvonne accused the Nigerian government of lacking a sense of humanity. She called out the president and his wife, saying that Nigerians aren’t doormats nor people they can easily prey on.
Bolanle Ninalowo had said a word of prayer to those who have benefited from Nigerian resources. He prayed that God punish and withhold his grace from anyone who has taken and benefits from Nigerian resources at the expense and pain of other Nigerians.
Singer, Jaywon Juwonlo admitted that he had expectations from the President, but the version of leadership isn’t what he and many others hoped for.
Veteran Hilda Dokubo, while calling for urgent government action and empathy, slammed the president for being detached from citizens’ suffering. The veteran stressed that she was more concerned about whether the government can effectively protect lives and property, adding that this is the question many Nigerians want answered.
